The interest of palaeobotanists and palynologists to participate has extended well beyond Europe. Thanks to contributions of various sponsors and registration money, tens of colleagues without or with minimal funding pos- sibilities have been invited, mostly from eastern Europe. So far about 300 registrations have been obtained from Europe, USA, China, Japan, India, Egypt, Argentina and other countries. Because numerous oral presentations have been submit- ted, the program of the conference must run in five parallel sections. In such a situation, related topics may clash. We have tried to minimize such conflicts but they cannot be entirely avoided. The conference has been placed in the Czech Technical University area, in the joint building of the Faculty of Civil En- gineering and Architecture STAVEBNÍ FAKULTA ČVÚT FAKULTA ARCHITEKTURY), Thákurova 7, Praha 6 (near the Vítězné nám. square from the terminal of the underground – metro line A – “DEJVICKÁ” via the Technická Street to the end). The welcome party (6th Sept. 19:00) and the workshop (9th Sept. 9:00) will take place in the main building of the National Museum, upper part of the Václavské nám. square (the underground metro lines A and C, station “MUZEUM”). The oral presentations start at 8:30 for morning sessions and at 14:20 for afternoon sessions. The speakers are kindly requested to upload the presentations 10 min. before the block of lectures starts and strictly follow the schedule. The space for the posters in the entrance hall is divided and the posters are numbered according to the sections and topics. They can be mounted starting with the registration and must removed before the end of the Sunday session. Technical aid is provided at the registration desk. Only poster sessions within the sections are an- nounced in the program. Participants are encouraged to view the posters also during the breaks. Details about the field trips are separately available (field guide book, last information circular). In any case of difficulty, we provide cellphone numbers that the participants can use and ask help: Jiří Kvaček: +420 24412283, Zlatko Kvaček: +420 720548168, Jiřina Dašková: +420 776000824, Helena Loneková: +420 608408708, Jakub Sakala: +420 732713860, Vasilis Teodoridis: +420 777311159. For financial support of the conference and facilities our thanks are due to the British Palaeontological Society, Lon- don, the North-Bohemian Mining Corporation, Chomutov, Olympus C&S, Praha, the National Museum, Praha, the Charles University, Praha, the Czech Geological Survey, Prague, the County Museum, Plzeň and Mayor of the town of Plzeň. We also thank to the Conference Partners, who helped much with the organisation of the meeting. We hope that the conference will offer a good opportunity to exchange scientific views and contribute to extension of personal contacts among palaeobotanists and palynologists. We wish to you all an enjoying stay in Prague and much thank for participating.
